Balancing a full-time job with a university degree requires discipline, motivation, and the right academic environment. For this second-year Bachelor’s student in Business Management at SRH Distance Learning University (SRH DLU), distance learning has made it possible to pursue higher education, gain international exposure, and continue building a career at the same time.

After completing high school in Ireland, Dalila chose to study internationally while working in the corporate sector—an experience that has shaped both professional ambitions and personal growth.
